  4. News media needs to call this what it is

    A Nazi salute

    There’s just no hiding lmao

    Edit :: he did it twice back to back … no mistaking it lol

  6. Insanity. It’s not even a matter of drawing parallels at this point; this is history repeating itself. So scary.

  7. Not even four hours in President Musk already giving the Nazi salute. 

  9. If they speak and act like Nazis maybe they’re just Nazis?

  10. That was a straight up Nazi salute right off an old news reel.

  20. I wonder if ketamine made him feel comfortable enough to do this. He definitely has looked high all day.

  21. Those were “hard Z” NaZi salutes, my fellow Americans…

  22. “Odd-looking?” That was a full-blown, unambiguous, fully deliberate and intentional Nazi salute. Twice.

  23. I don’t even know what to say anymore. I have no doubts people will deny what it was or say it was a “joke”. There are people out there who are just too far gone to be reasoned with.

  24. That wasn’t odd looking, it wasn’t a wave caught at an awkward moment.

    He straight up did the Nazi salute, twice.

    Fucking Nazi piece of shit

  25. Calling it “odd looking” is the media covering for Musk and Trump.

  27. Lara Ingraham last time and now Musk. All are NAZI scum. Fuck every one of them.

  28. They will swear up and down they aren’t Nazis and act insulted and hurt, right up til they push the button on the fuckin gas chamber smh

  30. The similarities between 1930s Germany and current the US are as striking as they are terrifying.

  31. “odd looking”

    What the fuck?

    Just call these assholes what they are.

  32. What Laura Ingraham did at the RNC was odd-looking.

    That’s a straight up Nazi salute.

  33. This isn’t odd. It’s very famliar to anyone with even a casual familiarity with history.

  34. Elon tweeted out his speech 10 minutes ago, and the source cut out the salute part, it cuts to a shot of the crowd

  37. “Odd looking” – Fuck this media sane washing bullshit.

  38. Remember when Trump remarked on Hitler having the best generals. We’ll he got what he asked for lol. 

  39. A bit of lesson in history. (And yes, you can actually read about it. This comes from facts and not from a “leftist”.)

    This is a form of a Nazi salute. Specifically the Afrikaneer salute.

    It is a white supremacy movement of Dutch origin that originated in South Africa.

    He did it quick but knowledgeable historians and even people associated with the movement will recognize the hand gesture.

  40. What will they not downplay? 20 years ago if you were a powerful person and were seen in public doing this your life would be in ruins. Now it gets a standing ovation. I guess we’re nazis now?

  41. >Elon just said “My heart goes out to you” and made a motion of grabbing his heart and throwing it at the crowd. r/politics is calling it a “Nazi salute” and freaking out. That place is fucking wild.

    Massively upvoted quote from the conservative sub.

    You guys are SOOOOO FUCKED. A Nazi just shouted “I’m a Nazi” and half of you are still too stupid to see it happening.

    Anyway, I’m off to the other side of the fucking planet!

  42. We told you.
    We told you.
    We told you.
    For four years we told you.

  43. It’s not odd. Elon is a Nazi. 
    His platform is a platform for Nazis. 

    This isn’t hard. 

  44. On MLK day we just had the richest man in the world do a Nazi salute at the inauguration of the president of the US. My mind is having trouble computing that.
